6ft Mini Shipping Container
The smallest container we supply. A 6ft box fits where a 10ft will not — narrow driveways, courtyards, rooftop plant areas — and still gives you a lockable steel store that no shed will match for security.

When a 6ft container is the right call
Most people come to us for a 6ft because access decided it for them. A standard tilt tray needs room to slide a box off, and if your gate is three metres wide or your yard backs onto a fence line, a 20ft is simply never going to land. The 6ft solves that. It takes up roughly the footprint of a small car and can be positioned in places a larger container cannot reach.
The trade-off is honest: you get less floor area. What you do not lose is the steel. Same Corten construction, same lockable cam-lock doors, same weather seals as the big units. Tradespeople use them for tool and power-tool storage on residential builds. Landscapers park them on site for a fortnight. Homeowners use them during renovations when the garage becomes a work zone.
What to think about before you order
Ground preparation matters more on a small container, not less. A 6ft has fewer contact points, so soft ground will let one corner sink and the doors will bind. Timber sleepers or a few concrete pavers under the corner castings solve it permanently.
Ventilation is worth discussing if you are storing anything that can sweat — fuel cans, damp canvas, garden chemicals. We can talk you through vent options when you enquire.
Delivery
We arrange delivery across Australia from our Strathfield South depot and provide access guidance before dispatch, so you know what the truck needs before it turns up rather than after.
